Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games: Mocking jay
Napoleon from Animal Farm
Chapter 11
Days after the fight on animal farm between Napoleon, his pigs,
Pilkington and his men, Clover had found a young lady in the barn
sleeping behind the hay bails. Clover nudged her awake with a couple
kicks from her hooves. As the girl awoke, Clover called the animals
over to see if she was normal or another nut like Jones.
“Who are you strange human,” Napoleon questioned with much curiosity. “Answer now or be killed where you sit.”
As the girl awoke, she was in shock after hearing the animal`s talk. She had never heard anything like this before.
“My name is Katniss Everdeen. I hail from District 13. I am the victor from my Hunger Games.”
While Katniss was sharing her adventurous life, the animals sat and
listened thoroughly to her as if they were going to be quizzed on it.
After a gigantic round of applause from the animals, Napoleon blurted
something that the farm went dead silent about
“My little pigeon pal told me that Frederick is yet coming back for a
final battle so he can increase his farmland. Now that means we all
need to be ready for anything. So Katniss here will be on guard with a
couple of my dogs every night.”
Just as Napoleon was finishing his little speech, Katniss opened her
box to find she still had her bow in the box with a note from Prim
saying, We miss you Katniss. Mom will explain when you come back home. -Prim. She
had full stock of the fire tip, explosive and regular arrows. Just as
she was rearranging the box, a baby pig named Dominic asked what the
strange object was. Instead of explaining just to Dominic, Katniss
asked for the animals` attention. She held up the bow and started to
explain its concept and how powerful it was.
“Would one of you be so kind to set up a target of some sort?,” Kat
asked thinking only one animal would do it. But at all at the same
time, Dominic gathered all ten of his brothers and one sister. They all
set up rotten chicken eggs from the previous week on hay bales. As all
the little piggies scurried out of the way Katniss blasted the first
eight eggs wide open, yolk splattered everywhere. “Would you like to
see how the explosive ones work?”
“Yes,” Napoleon said, “ but first somebody move the last three targets into the field so the barn doesn't blow up.”
Dominic
led his family to the field with the targets . They all scurried back
to watch the pitch black field light up the night with small explosions.
The animals enjoyed the sight, Napoleon especially.
“Frederick
does not stand a chance against us now!,” Napoleon shrieked. As usual
the sheep would blurt out this time something the whole farm was
screaming. The loud yells of “Long live Katniss”, “Long live Katniss”
filled the night`s brisk air.

This story was amaizing. It was very interesting to read. When you said the egg yolks splattered everywhere I imagined that perfectly For some reason this story made me think of "Charlettes Web"
ReplyDeleteA setting you described the best, even though you reakky didnt describe that much, was the barn. I could picture all the animals sitting there just watching Katniss sleeping. "Would you like to see how the explosive ones work?”
“Yes,” Napoleon said, “ but first somebody move the last three targets into the field so the barn doesn't blow up.” I liked those likess because i imagined Napoleon being very excited when he said yes to seeing the explosive ones.
I would say the dialouge was authentic. It seemed pretty realistic for talking animals. Who wouldn't be excited to see explosive arrows work. that seems pretty realistic to me.
I couldn't find anything that was ditracting or problamatic in this piece. He obvioulsy read it enough times to make sure that there are not any problems in it.
William, First off i would like to thank you for putting me in your essay! okay, i thought your story was Very Very good! the picture in my head was perfect when i was reading it, "While Katniss was sharing her adventurous life, the animals sat and listened thoroughly to her as if they were going to be quizzed on it." i like how you explained this, i could picture all the animals sitting and listening to katniss as she talks about her life. The conversation was well thought and put together nicely, very authentic. i honestly did not think anything was wrong or problematic with your essay. You did a very good job will.
